COLONY BROODER HOUSES
BY

Division of Poultry Husbandry
Good housing is one of the essentials for egg production of the
laying hen. This same principle should be applied to chicks by
saying that comfortable and adequate quarters are necessary for
the successful growing of chicks.
The term "colony brooder house" belongs to any means of
housing that is portable and suitable for brooding chicks. Such
houses are usually grouped in colonies of two to four, especially
during the summer growing season.
